Even with an education you are paid what everyone else is paid and are stuck in the same position. Certain departments are looked down on compared to everything else, even if they are just as important

Lines break easily, many days devoted to carting products around or detailed cleaning of the factory. Long, boring and repetitive tasks in a very bright very cold environment. Pay and benefits are decent.

Unless you are a LIFER there. you will be treated like dirt. Used for the summer. and then let go for absolutely no reason at all in the fall...…….STAY FAR, FAR, FAR AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pros

Free ice cream

Cons

Unless you have been there forever. you will be used, treated like dirt and tossed away at the end of the summer for no reason

15 Breaks - takes 4 mins to walk from punch clock to your locker, get your phone/money, then to lunch room. 4 minutes going back to wash your hands etc, so you have 7 minutes to scarf down any food, check your phone messages, and/or make a phone call.

1/2 Hour for lunch: same thing, not much time to relax and get food.

Not much training, as a new employee. You're supposed to know what you need to do. Work is relatively easy, but if something goes wrong with scanner, good luck. Don't know who your boss is from shift to shift.

Can't make plans outside of work. Last minute schedule changes can butcher plans. Future appointments are hard to book in advance because you won't know what shift you're on.

Mild hypothermia from time to time. No hot water in washrooms close to working area.

Hired to be a forklift driver, but 95% of the work involves using a double-length walkie (NOT A FORKLIFT). Puts a lot of stress on you fingers and wrist, when you're squeezing the handle (with mitts on) all day to steer/stop/start the walkie on slippery floors.

The staff at this location were helpful and knowledgeable, and made each day's work environment welcoming and peaceful. security desk offers a sense of comfort in knowing that you are safe, and safety rules are well documented.

Decent enough job. Worked there for a few summers and it was really boring but definitely made a lot of money. Treat employees fairly well, especially regarding pay. Exactly what you would expect from a factory job; a lot of standing, repetition, working with your team. I don't think I could've stayed for more than a summer at a time because it wasn't challenging enough but I have high respect for those that do.

Production Line worker (Former Employee) – Markdale, ON – 18 October 2017

- A typical day at work consisted first of changing into your hairnet and uniform, punching in to the time clocks and going onto the production floor to relieve the crew that is currently working. The production line had about 5 different stations on it, with half hour rotations so you were never in the same spot for more than half an hour. My Lead Hand and Helper were very enjoyable people who made the day go by a lot quicker.

Working Sanitation is alright as there are good benefits to working there, it also has many downfalls the crew is an awesome group to work with although the supervisors are little to understand others and they don't care how sick you are they still expect you to show up, the understanding of the job is easy but it's straight midnight shifts sadly unless you prefer it, lots of work with chemicals, pay starts well though, it is not something for everyone no but it isn't a terrible job. Supervisors and the company just doesn't treat their employees all that great.

Pros

Free ice cream, not always good things though.

Cons

Straight nights, some boring hours lots of scrubbing of equipment many use of chemicals.

very clean and large company that was great to work for the only down side was it was in markdale and I live in Shelbunre which was a bit of a drive to get to work. overall would definitely would work for them again.

This was by far one of the best jobs I have had. Unfortunately, management was the downfall of the job. The supervisors were not understanding of medical situations and did not always have the employees best interests in mind. A typical day on sanitation entailed working with chemicals to ensure the lines were clean and sanitary to run the next type of ice cream through them once again. It is a very enjoyable job but with the lack of understanding, this job may not be for everyone.

Worked there for four years in maintenance In that four years I saw 33 millwrights come and go some of them where there ten plus years. Every bad review you read is true every good one is put on my management. Notice any job on indeed for maintenance is put up by a job agency and never do they say the job is at crapmans. Word travels in small communities. I tell my story to everyone that asks. And will never by there product again.
